Across the land, sacred scrolls (also known as black-and-white illustrations) have been scattered. It is your mission to color them - not with spiritual energy or the Sword of Ablution, but with creativity, passion, and the fire of your soul.
Whether you are a Guardian or a simple merchant all are welcome to enter, however, entrants must be 18 or older and reside in the United States.
Return your completed artwork to us, and you shall be entered for our judges to score.

Throughout July and August, 4 stories (animated trailers) will be revealed, each one chronicling a unique pair of guardians. With each trailer launch, a new illustration, a sacred scroll, will be unveiled for the coloring contest. Each entry window opens when its corresponding trailer goes live and closes the day before the next story and sacred scroll is released.
There will be 5 entry periods in total, one for each of the 4 stories, plus a final bonus image. Entrants may submit once per entry period (for a total of 5 entries) to improve their chances in the eyes of Shinju.
- Download the black-and-white portrait from the sacred gallery.
- Color it by hand or digitally—no matter the method, your heart must guide your brush. Please do not submit AI created art.
- Post your finished masterpiece on X with #TowaArt and mention @playtowa.

- Await judgement of your creative work.
